3 Methods for Evaluating Pile Length in Existing Foundations

3 Methods for Evaluating Pile Length in Existing Foundations

As Canadian cities evolve and densify, one engineering challenge resurfaces over and over: How can we confidently assess the length of existing piles and deep foundations when documentation is missing or incomplete? This question is particularly important during rehabilitation, retrofitting, or underground construction (e.g., tunneling) near existing

Non-destructive Evaluation for Precast Concrete

Precast concrete elements are usually manufactured and cured in a controlled environment. This controlled process results in high quality and consistency of the end products. However, construction errors, formwork issues, and damages during transportation and installation can impact the quality, and integrity of these precast elements. Non-destructive

Detecting Corrosion in Post-Tensioned Structures

Detecting Corrosion in Post-Tensioned Structures: Non-Destructive Evaluation Methods In this article, we will explore how non-destructive testing (NDT) and evaluation methods help structural engineers and construction managers in detecting corrosion in post-tensioned structures. By using a multi-technology approach that includes Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR), Ultrasonic Pulse Echo
